I haven't always been invisible. In fact, there was a time when everyone could see me. I was bright, multi-colored. But then, with each year, I slowly began fading, until today, where I find myself invisible to all but a few.
It took awhile though, to fade. To lose myself, my self-confidence, my dreams, my ambitions. And really, I blame myself more than anyone. For letting years pass, for letting my voice, once so vibrant and strong, slowly grow weak and eventually silent. And now, I find I am merely a shadow of my former self, not even recognizing the reflection in the mirror. But worst of all, not even knowing where to look anymore for my reflection, for me. And even wondering if I would know it if I saw it.
But I know it is time to start looking for it, my old reflection, the one I use to know and the one I would recognize. It's time to start thinking about where to look for it. And even more importantly, it's time to find out why I became an invisible wife...
